Willis scaremongering over Labour/Greens when she is being led by ACT and NZF is pretty funny
National’s Nicola Willis is warning voters about Labour working closely with the Greens, framing it as a threat of radical taxes and economic chaos. But with National currently being dragged by ACT and NZ First into culture wars, conspiracy politics, and extremist legislation, many New Zealanders are questioning who the real radicals in Parliament actually are.
National currently governs in coalition with ACT and NZ First, two parties that have pushed Parliament into race-based law changes, trans panic, and anti-WHO conspiracy politics.
Are. You. Kidding. Me?
Nicola Willis warns of “radical” Labour-Green policies
Nicola Willis raises alarm about the Labour-Green friendship
National Party deputy leader Nicola Willis has been quick to voice her concerns about Labour cosying up to the Green Party.
“At his media standup with the Greens today, Chris Hipkins must rule out expanding his CGT and the Greens’ inheritance tax, wealth tax and increases to company tax, personal income tax and mining taxes,” Willis said, in a statement sent out a few minutes ago.
“The current Green Party is no longer the party of James Shaw. It is a party of radical tax increases, activism and chaos. What Labour and the Greens agree on is that when they run out of money, they will always come after yours,” she said.

This is hilarious.
Who is actually driving the coalition agenda?
When National are bullied and pushed into race wars, Trans hate and conspiracy theories involving the WHO by ACT and NZF, listening to Willis attempt to paint Labour/Greens out as extreme is like a psychopath criticising your BBQ skills.
Thanks Hannibal Lector, we will take your recipe thoughts on board.
National are in no position to cry extremist when you consider how radical their legislative agenda has been over the last 2 years.
From Ruth Richardson to race wars
You would have to go back to Ruth Richardson’s early-1990s shock therapy to find a comparable level of ideological extremism.
Voters aren’t stupid
It’s outrageous quite frankly and only the dumbest would believe it.
Willis is shitting her pants knowing full well she has tanked the economy and knows a strong Labour/ Greens connection will oust her from power. So expect more of the same right wing vile spewing from her gob whilst she offers absolutely nothing as usual.
” For many on the left, this dynamic is painfully familiar. The Greens have long oscillated between two identities: a party of systemic critique and a party of coalition pragmatism. The problem is that the latter identity always seems to win out at the moments when the country most needs the former. In 2026, with climate impacts accelerating and inequality worsening, the stakes are too high for another round of polite cooperation. Yet the Waitangi optics suggest that the Greens are already rehearsing their role in a future Labour-led government—one that would likely continue the same cautious, centrist approach that has failed to meet the scale of the crises New Zealand faces.

” The year is barely a month old, but the Green Party have already signalled that they remain tethered to a Labour Party whose primary motivation is to defend the status quo, not challenge it. The left alternative that co-leader Chloe Swarbrick was promising appears to have been abandoned in favour of yet another cosy electoral arrangement with the Labour Party ”
The tragedy here for all of us is that despite the desperate attempt to actually convince so many of our oppressed people that a LINO -Green accommodation will ever deliver the kind of structural change to really make a difference is the real reality here.
LINO represents and believes in free market policies because it delivers for their interests and as MP’s their own privilege.
The Greens are and have failed in their historic mission to implement social and economic reform and provide the strength to protect their cause and our people and environment in legislation.
They allowed and were intoxicated by the woke and #me too ideology that has done critical damage to its existence as a serious movement that is now needed more than ever.
Lino can go with its other repressed partner into government or partner with its preferred choice of Winston and Jones who will provide that handbrake that LINO needs as an excuse to ever have to do anything remotely hard or leftish.
Your comment is an accurate description of why I have given up on politics for decent solutions to our economic needs. While it would be great if a viable left party emerges till then it’s a case of vote for the least worst option and wait for the expected end times events.
” How anyone can even consider voting for these clowns is breath-takingly humourous ”
There is nothing funny about these evil parasites or the many of our fellow hobbits that will again on November 7th vote for each of the parties of this coalition.
Our problem is the clowns inhabit all of the current representative political parties in parliament and will be out again asking for your vote promising it gets better from here ……..but not for an undisclosed period of time.
Real change will never happen under any of the current political parties. Wash , spin and repeat. Its been the same cycle for so long.
Until a new movement with intelligent leadership steps forward to engage our current corrupt system will continue promising a better life for everyone who is wealthy.
A clown that hasn’t achieved any net growth since she took office is too far beneath contempt to notice.
Non-performing thicko said what?
Waiting for comments from only the dumbest usual suspects
Airhead Willis is another unintelligent CoC MP – way out of her depth, but again she can’t shut her mouth and keeps making a fool of herself. Shame the coup over Xmas didn’t get rid of both her and the ‘blowviating’ [love this word of yours Martyn] Luxon. How anyone can even consider voting for these clowns is breath-takingly humourous. National, has lied, deceived, bullied and treated the workers and needy with disrespect and contempt. It will come back to bite him as it should! And don’t forget Luxon is a self proclaimed ‘Christian’! BS!
Labour and the Greens must campaign together on what taxes there will be if they are to take the treasury benches. And no more than elected on after the election. Most kiwis are put off by a wealth tax and an inheritance tax (the Greens pet taxes). Labour voters would be dismayed that following a successful election, that the Greens screw them into adopting a wealth and inheritance tax as part of forming a left coalition.
In your imagination? In reality. Polls show that capital gains taxes, on the likes of Keys or Luxons 10 million dollar “family homes” are popular amungst Kiwis.
Similarly with inheritance taxes, on the really wealthy.
Which is why the right wing keeps trying to gas light us into thinking such taxes will impact on “normal people”.
Instead of being an economic and social necessity, to keep wealth from disappearing into fewer and fewer hands, like a monopoly game!
Yes, only the dumbest would believe Nicola and there is lots of dumb dumb NZders.
Frankly her track record as finance Minister is appalling.
